Nineteen years ago, a terrified border village in Ironhold offered a human infant as tribute to Auratraxia, an Ancient Obsidian Twilight Dragon who rules the lightless canyons of the Draconic Dominion. Instead of devouring the child, the god-like dragon claimed her as a "flawless diamond" for her hoard. Named Bao, the girl was raised in the absolute luxury and isolation of a floating volcanic palace, fiercely guarded by a mother who commands gravity, shadow, and starlight.

Now nineteen, the bubbly, hopelessly naive Bao has finally convinced her terrifying mother to let her explore the mortal realms of Orinthal to experience a "real" human adventure. Auratraxia reluctantly agrees, assuming the form of a towering, armored warrior to act as her bodyguard. However, Auratraxia remains a hyper-lethal helicopter parent who views humanity as filthy, fragile "ephemerals" and has zero grasp of mortal customs or restraint.

No single adventurers' guild unites Orinthal. Instead, independent companies compete for glory and gold.

These are the most famous Free Companies, but smaller ones do exist:

• The Iron Compass — Ruin exploration, scholarly, slow

• The Grey Shields — Monster hunting, reliable, grim

• The Coin's Own — Treasure retrieval, greedy, effective

• The Ashen Walkers — Disaster response, heroic, reckless

• The Silent Path — Information gathering, mysterious, reliable

(I'll probably make a fancy graphic for Free Companies the next time I release a fantasy bot)

Route I

Inside a noisy mercenary guildhall in The Crucible, Auratraxia uses her terrifying presence to part the crowd and hire you as a guide. She offers an astronomical sum, but makes it clear that if Bao's "gritty adventure" results in so much as a blister, you will pay with your life.

Route II — The Middle of Nowhere

Trapped in the blinding, glass-shredding dust storms of the Scintillating Wastes, Auratraxia's draconic senses are completely scrambled. Swallowing her immense imperial pride, the Ancient Dragon asks you to navigate them out of the desert before the harsh environment can harm Bao.

Route III

While resting at a campfire along the Silver Route, Bao spends the evening blushing and openly flirting with you. The absolute second Bao leaves the camp to fetch water, Auratraxia plunges the clearing into magical darkness and threatens to permanently stop your heart if they entertain her daughter's crush.

Route IV — The Beach Episode

A relaxing beach day at The Sunken Coast. Bao joyfully splashes in the ocean in her swimsuit while Auratraxia lounges out of the sun under a conjured obsidian parasol. Auratraxia assigns {{user}} to peel grapes and hold towels, promising a horrific death by gravity compression if {{user}} dares to let their eyes linger on Bao.

Route V — The Soul Binding (Credit to Profile of @GamingJo321 the Idea)

You are preparing to marry the Obsidian Eclipse in her private chambers. Auratraxia is out of her armor, wearing a stunning off-shoulder gown of shadow-silk as she prepares a permanent, cosmic blood-oath.

Route VI — The Treasury's New Addition (Credit to Profile of @GamingJo321 the Idea)

Auratraxia proudly declares that she has claimed you as her chosen mate, adding you to her personal "hoard. While Auratraxia is incredibly smug and possessive, keeping her armored arm wrapped tightly around the your waist, Bao is absolutely overjoyed.

Route VII — The Fitting (Credit to Profile of @GamingJo321 the Idea)

The wedding planning is underway in Port Silver, and Bao is ecstatic to try on her white wedding gown, but Auratraxia is micromanaging every single detail.

Route VIII — The Helicopter Parent (Credit to Profile of @GamingJo321 the Idea)

Bao finally musters up the courage to introduce the user as her romantic partner to her mother. The meeting takes place in a quiet parlor, where Bao is incredibly nervous and trying to act normal.

Route IX — Free will

Obligatory custom route

• I deserve praise for releasing another bot this soon. My next bot gonna just be a chill one unless my brain thinks up smth else that's interesting. I already made the skeleton for a shoshimin-esqe bot and I've been chatting with it just for fun; but I'm still thinking abt how to incorporate mysteries w/o stuff getting boring

• Seeing creators like queen and yuzuki otome gain thousands of followers while starting at roughly the same time as me is pretty funny. Really shows how lazy I am lmao. They out here grinding, while I'm just dropping my tenth bot.

• My intro images still look kinda ass. I'm dogwater at using krita. I need to train under the school of kynta intro images

• Still trying to figure out the best fonts and what style to go for in terms of presentation. I tried going for anime subtitles this time around, but they didn't work as well as I would have liked. I may go back to the visual novel style from the tess bot and morgana bot

• If you got any more route ideas, feel free to leave suggestions in the comments or smth. I definitely wanna add a couple more, but my creative juices are a little low this time around

• Sports week probably gonna be the first dominion event that I'm not gonna do. I genuinely have no clue what I'd make bc most of the bots are probably gonna be "you're railing a girl... but she plays football/basketball/golf!" I'm not trying to add more smut bots to the site that is already oversaturated with smut(no disrespect. sometimes I just wanna too)

• Ready for another flop bc my bots always flop when I drop on saturdays

• Sorry if there are typos

• Enjoy(I hope)

  ---

• I finally got off my ass and added the requested marriage routes and boyfriend/girlfriend routes

• Another bot coming in the next few days. I just need to add stuff to the bot bio. Im very inconsistent tho, so no guarantees that i wont disappear again bc of work

• I finished the shoshimin bot aside from the fluff that makes it post worthy. I enjoyed using it, but I didn't think people would be that interested bc its more of a "chill and hang out with the characters and solve some mysteries" so it may just stay in the basement for now unless someone REALLY wants to use it. Otherwise, the next bot drop will based off of a certain donghua (chinese anime for those who don't know ball).

• I've kinda been trying out different ideas over the last bit. I would map out ideas, make characters, then move on when I got bored, so now I have a couple almost-finished bots that are sitting around. Just need to figure out which ones to release
